[C4D] General Discussion / Re: Long time charging the scene before rendering

« on: 2019-10-04, 00:14:33 »

I did the same test again but without any textures or materials.

IR - parsing time: 0m25s, render time: 1m47s
Normal render - parsing time: 0m17s, render time: 1m53s
TeamRender - parsing time: 0m20s, render time: 1m8s

TeamRender has clearly a problem to handle textures - at least in my case.. I don't know, if it's on the side of corona or c4d.
And no, my network isn't that bad ;)
But yep, I have to reduce my textures to get acceptable performance. :)

I have also problems with long parsing time.

I tested it on a exterior scene. 65MB geometry, 1.3GB textures. I rendered 5 passes.

iMac i7 4790k (for IR and normal render)
PC i7 5960X (TeamRender rendered only on this cpu)

IR - parsing time: 1m16s, render time: 1m17s
Normal render -  parsing time: 1m0s, render time: 3m6s
Team Render - parsing time: 4m48s, render time: 2m19s

The same behavior also on all other scenes with vegetation and textures..
Can someone explain me, how to reduct parsing time? Parsing time is just too long for such a scene. Render time itself is okay.
Also: during parsing is only one processor working, is this behavior normal?

Thanks you!

I see, you are fixing motion blur in v5. Please fix this bug too!
It isn't working yet... :(

[C4D] Daily Builds / Re: Corona Renderer 5 for Cinema 4D daily build

« on: 2019-09-22, 22:46:02 »

Hi, I can't install this latest daily build on my iMac OSX 10.14.6
The installer installs in the R20 folder and does not recognize the "Applications/Maxon Cinema 4D R21" folder
R21 is actually differently installed by the Maxon installer in a folder that is named "Maxon Cinema 4D R21" It used to be "Applications/Maxon/Cinema 4D R20"

I tried to manually move the installed Corona Plugin folder from R20 to the R21 plugin folder but it did not work. The plugin in the R20 folder is named corona4dR20.xlib so maybe the installer does not install a R21 compatible plugin in the R20 folder.

Anyhow, hope the team fixes this asap. I feel a little left out now...

Same here. But it works fine with R20 so far :)
Thanks!

Hi all and sorry for the lack of updates. As of now, we are finalizing the v5 daily with R21 support. If all goes well, we will be able to release it today! Backport of R21 support to v4 will come later if we don't encounter any bugs with it in v5.

Sounds good! I can't wait to test it :)

Thanks!

[C4D] Bug Reporting / Re: Object motion blur

« on: 2019-09-18, 23:16:21 »

... This all belongs to the huge motion blur problem that corona has.
There are so many stop stones when using motion blur, that it could be considered as useless.

LicensingServerLogin.txt file  is in my applications folder. It works without any problems.
But you did the same and it didn't work yet... I don't know more, sorry!

I know Team Render has still some issues but I never had such one like you described.

Do you get any error messages? Or maybe changed Exposure settings?

You need to copy all polygon selections as well.

Have a nice weekend!

As far as I know it's necessary to copy the material-tag of the original object to the Proxy.
If you don't do that, it renders without textures.

It is possible. Change the projection of the camera to Parallel Projection.

It worked pretty well in my case.

Edit: I used the same technique for a test a few month ago. See below.
